Florida Foreclosure Surplus Funds by County (Full Guide)

Written by Visionary Surplus Recovery LLC

The Complete 2026 Foreclosure Surplus Funds Resource for All 67 Florida Counties

When a property in Florida is foreclosed, any amount received from the sale above the mortgage, fees, and foreclosure costs is called foreclosure surplus funds. Under Florida Statute §45.032(1)(a), this extra money belongs to the former homeowner or an eligible claimant, including heirs, lienholders, or probate estates.

However, every county in Florida handles foreclosure surplus funds differently. Processes can vary in:

  • Required forms for filing claims

  • Claim submission procedures and deadlines

  • Review times by the Clerk of Court or Comptroller

  • Probate requirements

  • Distribution rules for surplus funds

  • Communication workflows with the County Clerk or Comptroller

Whether you are a former homeowner, heir, lienholder, or estate representative, Visionary Surplus Recovery helps you claim the funds you’re legally entitled to—with no upfront fees.

Claims initially filed without professional representation that later require correction, amendment, or litigation may be subject to modified recovery terms, including a higher recovery fee, due to the additional work required.
